With rapidly industrial development, a railway has become of a main traffic means. But, the railway noise has caused much annoyance for the residents living nearby railway tracks. Therefore, in our country, for established of Quite dwelling environment, execute regulation standard of railway noise from January 1, 2000. Efficiency soundproofing measures, however, are very difficult because of the lack of basic data and insufficiency of the existing research. In this point, this study attempts to survey the characteristics of attenuation and propagation of railway noise in by existence of noise barrier. And this study intends to get the basic data for establishment of a standard about railway noise.

The advanced country established the test standard (e.g., BS, EN) to measure the toxic gases quantitatively and, have applied to enhance the fire safety of railway car. We must also follow the procedures to use interior material for railway car as stated the Safety regulation for the urban railway car. Currently, various interior materials are used to obtain the fire safety of railway car. The amount of toxic gases moved into the FT-IR gas cell via sampling line from the ISO 5659 chamber using cone heater was measured and compared the results for each materials.

Safety is important factor in railway system. Now most of the electric and electronic system which is applied in railway system is the embedded system which software is used. The constitution rate of software which is involved in railway system is gradually increasing. Most of the software which is used in railway system is implemented by the software developer. Thus the implemented code has different features according to the developer and this may cause the bad effect on the software's maintenance. International standard IEC 62279 requires an adoption the coding standard to developing the railway software. And it is plan to recommend complying with the coding standard in safety criteria for railway software which is noticed as the regulation of the Korean railway safety law. In this paper, we review the requirement of coding standards which is present in the software criteria for railway software and international standard. Also it investigates the coding standard which is in other safety related industry and presents the effective way to apply the software coding standard to domestic railway industry.

As industry develop rapidly, a possibility of railway-disasters (fire), are growing in consideration of speedy railway and increasing long tunnels. In Korea, KTX consists $46\%$ of tunnels constructed since early 1990, prescribed prevention disasters standard, taking into account that the train accident occurred. On this provision which refers other country's a high-speed railway fire safety regulation and is synthetically reflected topographical circumstance and tunnel size in Korea, in order to minimizing valuable casuality and securing safety operation of train from rapid evacuation and rescue a passenger from accident in tunnel.

The scott transformer is used to supply single-phase power to the AC railway system. Since the scott transformer is a passive facility, it cannot regulate load-side voltage according to load change. Meanwhile, the Voltage Source Converter (VSC) is able to convert the voltage and control active and reactive power. In this paper, the feasibility of a AC railway system based on Back-to-Back (BTB) VSC which is composed of a rectifier, a DC-DC converter, a inverter, has been proposed. A three-phase to single-phase BTB VSC is modeled. The proposed AC railway system based on BTB VSC is tested on Matlab/Simulink.

Green ocean is one of the main issues internationally. Most governments are leading the role in boosting the economy through creating new green market and establishing system of coping with increasing international environmental regulation. Green ocean, which is a solution for the environmental issue of global warming, is applied throughout the industry. Domestic transportation industry including railway is also developing technology for creating green ocean. Transportation must decrease energy consumption at running stages because it shows high environmental loads expecially on using stages during its life cycle. Therefore, There are some tries for developing technologies; new engine through alternative energies, hybrid and lightweight. Railway transportation can not be exception. it is intended for this paper to suggest the direction of manufacturing environmentally friendly railway vehicle through the global warming effect evaluation of several materials being applied to vehicle and comparison of the results.

Urban transit operation is to manipulate the vehicle or train of urban transit to be operated on the basis of the installations such as track, power, communication, signaling and so on. It can be performed by manual or automated, or manned or manless operation considering its system built, operation efficiency, safety, etc. Because of the heavy impact directly to the safety of passenger transport, it has been managed strictly by the Regulation for Train Operation of Urban Transit according to Urban Transit Act. However, the present regulation has been basis of the manual operation mainly, it is crossing beyond the limitation of application to the manless operation which is being introduced moment to moment. It is needed increasingly to revise the regulation for the manless operation which is close at hand now. In this paper, we examined and analysed the cases of manless operation of urban transit planed within the country such as Busan 4th Line, Shinbundang Line, Busan-Kimhae Line, etc. based on the present regulation, and proposed the review of considerations to reflec the manless operation to the regulation to be revised.

Rialway passengers and public, workers typically have high potential on death and injury accidents, because they are to be frequently adjacent to train or train operation. In order to effectively reduce the risks associated with the passengers, the public, and the workers, a systematic risk assessment should be performed to evaluate the hazards that contribute to the accidents. This paper describes the effect of risk assessment web base system and the extension need of the classification of "The regulation of railway accident report and information in Korea", application for national or railway safety operator, sharing railway safety information.

Railway conflict detection and resolution problem (RCDRP) involves complicated field constraints that should be considered for practical service. In this paper, we address those constraints in brief. Particularly, following situations are addressed; (1) temporal change of network topology, (2) consideration of diverse conditions of track and train, for example, single/double tracks and passenger/freight service, (3) siding capacity limitation, (4) bidirectional sides used by both inbound and outbound trains, (5) regulation for passenger transfer service, (6) consideration of siding length, (7) Restriction on stopping before the track segment with steep slope.
